Musee d'Orsay Virtual Visit
© 1996 Montparnasse Multimedia
Art lovers will appreciate this beautiful program that visits France's famous Musee d'Orsay, home of a phenomenal collection of 19th century art. You can explore the museum first hand or take guided tours. The commentary on each work of art is very interesting, much like having a real docent pointing out important themes and elements. Showcased work includes that of Van Gogh, Monet, Rodin, Klimt, Gaugin and many other artists. The program's background music and imagery combine to make the experience aesthetically pleasing. Plan to spend some time wandering around, though. The navigation is very confusing and there is no search mechanism.
